Everything you need to know about Daily Standup Bot

There are three roles: Staff (submit standups and view group submissions), PM (manage specific groups, view group analytics), and CEO (manage all groups, access company-wide reports and analytics).
Navigate to the 'Submit Standup' page from your dashboard, or use the '/startstandup' command in Slack. Answer each question step by step and submit when complete.
Yes, you can edit your standup for up to 2 hours after submission. After that time, the standup becomes locked and cannot be modified.
Use the '/startstandup' command in Slack, or wait for your daily reminder. The bot will guide you through each question in a direct message conversation.
Missed standups are tracked in your analytics. Administrators can see inactive users and may follow up. Set up reminder notifications to avoid missing standups.
Yes, you can submit standups at any time. However, submissions after the scheduled time will be marked as 'Late' in reports and analytics.
You can write 'No updates' or 'N/A' for questions where you don't have specific information. All questions must be answered to complete the standup.

Leave and other alerts can be delivered via Slack or WhatsApp depending on your connected channels. Make sure your Slack account or phone number is connected for the channel you prefer.

Set reminders for a time that works with your schedule, typically 15-30 minutes before your group's standup meeting or preferred submission time.
Your Slack admin must install the app with at least these bot scopes: channels:read and groups:read so the bot can list both public and private channels it is a member of, plus chat:write and commands so it can post messages and handle slash commands. After updating scopes, make sure to reinstall the app in your Slack workspace so the changes take effect.
Go to the Slack Auth page and connect your account. This enables direct message standups and automatic posting to group channels.
Use '/startstandup' to begin your daily standup. The bot will guide you through each question in a private conversation.
